Four years ago the Christmas giveaway tradition started, and here we are yet again with a giveaway bigger and better than ever. Thanks to awesome contributions from Jordan, Marko and Owen you are able to try your luck and win something from the 82 games presented this year. The entry requirement is BNS membership of at least 1 month. If you aren't a BNS member and want to participate, you can do so by contributing in your own games into the giveaway pool(before the whole thing is locked though!) and you'll be able to win some as well. I wish you all good luck and a joyful Christmas!

My advice is to take a good look at the games listed, many of these are hidden indie gems.

Requirement: More than one month of BNS membership. The giveaway will be executed in a way that everyone can apply for three deals they'd like. You will get three entries for the draw on your first pick, two entries on your second pick, and one entry on your third pick. There is no limit on how many of those you can win. After the applications end we will list the people that wish each game, and make a random roll(It will be streamed) on who gets it. If a person is the only person to wish for a game/pack, they will automatically receive it. If there are games/packs no one wished for, they will be given out to the people who were out of luck and won no games.Application format:

This is not the final thread with name submissions, the purpose of this thread is to gather a list of games and add contributions. We'll have a different picking system this year(due to the large number of games) and lower value titles will be bundled by similarity. If you want to contribute games contact me.

Greetings, everyone. What follows will not be your usual development blog with new update progress and screenshots, it's a very important announcement in regards to mod development.

After more than two years of being the head developer of Star Wars: Bear Force II, the time for me to part ways has come. It has been a great pleasure, and an honour to work on this mod and with its amazing community. Time however, takes its toll as with everything in life and it's time for me to move on. The entire team has worked hard over the years to make our vision come true, we've learned and progressed a lot. You'll be hearing from us soon in regards to our new standalone project, we're not going anywhere!

However, this isn't the end of the road for the mod and the community! A new lead developer in whom I carry deep trust is taking over. Most of you familiar with the community surely have crossed ways with Mark, who will now be at the helm of the mod's development, together with EmielRegis - a new coder. They'll have a new strength and vigour to carry on with the mod development in a vision of their own, which I assure you is no less impressive than what we've accomplished so far. Mark and his new crew will soon provide a full blog to introduce themselves and the plans for the mod's future and direction.

I would like to once again thank the entire community, all the developers, contributors and all those who helped this mod reach the very top of what is considered modding games. It's hard to find the right words to express what an experience all of this was and what it meant. But, that's life, and the show must go on.

Day: Every SaturdayTime: 8 GMTServer: 501stCTL_Official_EUFactions: Republic, Separatists, Empire, RebelsThe standardized unit size for any clan is a squad. Aside from being the most effective unit proven by years of effectiveness, in order to use any specialists a squad must be a minimum of 6 men.

Rules:1. The events will be based on completely modular squad loadouts, which means all the squads are going to have the same base(regular infantry) and completely custom specialist classes as they see fit.2. A squad is considered at a minimum of 6 men.3. Your squad has the unlimited use of:

Medic packs.

Shotguns

Shields

Any weapon that an infantry class wields(except light or heavy machine guns, that's considered a specialist)

E.g. if you have a squad of 6+ men, let's assume you want to take the maximum of 2 specialist units. That means the other 4 standard infantrymen can be equipped with any infantry weapon they have available + medic packs, shotguns or shields.4. You can combine a maximum of 2 specialist classes for your squad. How you combine them is completely up to you, whether you take 2 heavies, 2 snipers or 1 sniper, 1 grenadier, 1 commando...it's up to you.List of specialist roles:

5. Every team will be assigned 2-4 Jedi/Sith(depending on the number of players), and the administrators will assign the Jedi/Sith to the clans. 5.a Jedi or Sith can take any combination of forces, lightsabers and outfits they wish.6. Every team will be assigned 4-10 Jets(Depending on the total number of players in the server), and the administrators will assign the Jets to the clans.7. Since the module has been balanced with counterpart stats, use of any weapon is allowed(as long as it's within your assigned class), except LMGs and HMGs for Infantrymen on Empire and Rebels(as referenced in rule 3 and 4).8. Ramboing is allowed, and you may use any formation you see fit. Your formation of choice may influence your round win or loss.9. Event is played on two maps with 800 tickets each.10. You are forbidden and will be slain for using the following glitches: Headglitching(successively crouching and shooting), wallglitching(looking through walls with your head), shield glitching(using a shield and pistol combo, or firing behind another person's shield while you yourself is untouchable) or trying to avoid any game mechanics.Notes: The event administrators might warn you for taking too many specialists.

Public/Lone players:1. You can play any class you wish except the Jedi/Sith and Jet classes unless assigned so.2. Same common sense rules, no teamkilling, teamhitting et cetera.
